Chapter 502 Missed
Chapter 502 Missed
Above the light and shadow, a soft glow emanated slightly. "The life of a god is long. A thousand years is but a fleeting moment to you. As long as he accumulates enough power, he can become a true god."
"But where am I supposed to go?" The Beast God stared blankly, his eyes filled with confusion. He and Yingxi had been inseparable since birth. How should he proceed with the future?
The light and shadow gently approached him, saying, "You will go to the realm of gods, where all the gods are like you, born from the three thousand worlds. You each have your own mission."
"As for Yingxi, if he truly has the destiny to become a god, I will naturally guide him to find you."
Looking at himself in his dream, the Beast God felt as if he had returned to that dilemma he faced years ago.
At that moment, the Beast God's fists were clenched tightly behind his back, his eyes staring blankly at his own vanished shadow on the ground. After a long, long time, his voice was exceptionally hoarse, "Fine."
He cannot deprive Yingxi of her right to freedom; it's only a matter of a few centuries. From the time he was born until now, an unknown amount of time has passed, and he can wait.
"But you have to give me some time. I need to talk to Yingxi in person!" Yingxi was his shadow; he knew her better than anyone.
Perhaps because he couldn't talk to others or leave his own side easily, his dependence on himself was particularly obvious. When the Beast God suddenly heard that the two of them would be separated for so long, he knew without even thinking that Yingxi would definitely resist.
However, staying on the orc continent would be entirely beneficial for Yingxi, and besides, they were only temporarily separated.
Guanxi's mind was in turmoil, and she didn't know how to start the conversation with Yingxi.
The light and shadow flickered. "No problem, I'll give you some time to think about how to bring it up with him."
After he finished speaking, the light and shadow in front of the Beast God slowly disappeared, as if they had never appeared at all.
The Beast God felt as if he had suddenly burst out of that chaotic space. He subconsciously looked down at his feet and saw Yingxi. Yingxi didn't seem to notice anything unusual at the time. When she saw his gaze looking in her direction, she shook her head excitedly.
The Beast God smiled slightly at him, but his brows were still furrowed, and he looked preoccupied.
In the following days, this became even more apparent. Yingxi often noticed that Guanxi seemed absent-minded, and he wasn't even as happy when his favorite grilled fish was placed in front of him.
Yingxi was a little worried, but no matter how he asked Guanxi, Guanxi wouldn't tell him, she just smiled and shook her head.
The old beast god, standing on the sidelines, looked at his younger self and a bitter smile appeared on his lips. So many years had passed, and Yingxi still hadn't become a god. Was he still resentful that he hadn't said goodbye to him properly?
The Beast God smiled faintly. Standing at the beginning of the story, he had already foreseen the eventual separation between him and Yingxi.
It's that dream again. He's had this dream for so many years, and every time he regrets it. Why didn't he tell Yingxi sooner? Why did he hesitate to speak up?
The Beast God knew Yingxi's personality all too well; he was probably holding a grudge against him.
At this moment, Yingxi had no idea that someone was spying on their lives. He was now scratching his head, wondering what Guanxi was thinking.
But if Guanxi doesn't want him to know something, Yingxi can't get it out no matter how hard he asks.
Moreover, Guanxi has been acting mysteriously these past few days, as if she's doing something behind his back.
Although he was Guanxi's shadow, if Guanxi didn't want him to notice, Yingxi had no way to go against his wishes.
However, he always felt that Guanxi was a bit weak these days.
And so, the man and his shadow lived out many days in an awkward and uncomfortable way.
Just as Yingxi's consciousness was falling asleep, the Beast God looked down at the small jade-colored light and shadow in his hand. On the light and shadow, its shape could be vaguely seen. It was the Beast God's true form, the Nine-Colored Unicorn Deer.
Guan Xi looked at the spirit body and smiled faintly. After so many days, he had finally managed to separate it. He had already become a god and would never change again. This thing was of little use to him.
But for Yingxi, it might be the opportunity to become a god even faster.
He quietly and imperceptibly merged the Beast God's Spirit in his hand into Yingxi's body, revealing a satisfied smile. With this Beast God's Spirit, Yingxi shouldn't be too lonely.
Just as Guanxi finally made up his mind to tell Yingxi, the space and time around him suddenly froze again. Guanxi was no stranger to this scene. Sure enough, not long after, light and shadow suddenly appeared. However, this time, the aura emanating from his body was particularly strong. "It's too late. Come with me now!"
Seeing his appearance, the Beast God had a bad feeling. "What's wrong?"
"The false gods have started wreaking havoc again, and one small world is on the verge of collapse. The gods are short-handed, and you must go and help immediately!"
"But I haven't heard from Yingxi that I'm leaving." The Beast God's heart skipped a beat.
The halo flickered even more violently. "There's no time left. They've already tracked me down. If they set foot on this newly operational orc continent, it will surely be destroyed!"
With his current abilities, he simply cannot withstand the pursuit of so many false gods.
"Leave now, immediately! If you don't leave, this continent will perish!"
The Beast God subconsciously knew that the halo before him was true, but he...
"Wait, why has your bloodline become so much weaker?!" The halo around the Beast God circled around cautiously, as if trying to discern something from him.
The Beast God felt a little guilty for a moment. How could this thing be so perceptive?
Before he could react, the halo suddenly shone brightly, faintly revealing his original form, which was a clear and bright golden crystal.
The Beast God's eyes widened in shock; it was the first time he had ever seen this thing reveal its true form.
Just then, the golden crystal seemed to sense something and trembled violently. Forgetting about questioning the Beast God, the light emanating from its body enveloped the Beast God's entire body, completely enveloping him. "Damn it, they've locked onto us! You'd better leave quickly; I'll talk to Yingxi about the rest!"
After saying this, without waiting for the Beast God's response, he threw him into a black hole, saying, "Go, someone will pick you up later!"
When the old Beast God saw this scene, a bitter smile appeared on his lips. It was because of his hesitation that he was unable to see Yingxi one last time.
This was his last memory of the orcish continent.
What he didn't know was that after he left, before Saint Crystal could tell Yingxi the truth, several members of the False God Clan followed the traces left by Saint Crystal and found the Beastman Continent. Saint Crystal used most of his power to kill them.
However, such pursuit is endless; the Holy Crystal can only stop it once, not every time.
To prevent other pseudo-god races from further disrupting the development of the Orcish Continent, the Holy Crystal had no choice but to use its last bit of strength to send a message to the Beast God before shattering its own body and scattering it across every corner of the Orcish Continent.
With his original form as the foundation, the Holy Crystal formed a solid defense, firmly covering the entire orc continent with a layer of silent camouflage. The Holy Crystal itself also fell into slumber due to the exhaustion of its power and the splitting of its original form.
Before falling into slumber, Saint Crystal still clung to a sliver of hope that Yingxi's shadow was clever enough and regarded Guanxi as his most important orc; sooner or later, he would notice something amiss.
Once he gathers all his original forms, he will naturally accumulate the power to break through the shackles and become a true god after he awakens.
